History

Energy Drinks

The origins of energy drinks can be traced back to post-World War II Japan, where an "energizing tonic" emerged, catering to blue-collar workers enduring long hours. The majority of these beverage profiles include caffeine, a powerful stimulant. When combined with the calories from the drink, caffeine generates energy within the body, providing the essential mid-day boost you need. If the science of it all fascinates you, check out our blog on how caffeine drinks work in the body.

As society embraced a faster-paced lifestyle, the demand for energy drinks skyrocketed. Entrepreneurs capitalized on this trend, continuously innovating to enhance the functionality of these beverages to meet consumers' evolving needs.

Key Considerations

  1. In addition to caffeine, energy drinks can be carbonated and have sugar or other sweeteners, herbal extracts, vitamins, minerals, and amino acids.
  2. Energy drinks are a subset of Functional Beverages. Through Flavorman, you can customize ingredients, caffeine alternatives, and more to innovate the typical energy drink profile.
  3. Ingredients in your energy drink may classify it as a dietary supplement, which the FDA treats completely differently and no longer considers a "beverage." This may also affect where your product lands on grocery store shelves and could potentially exclude it from certain retailers altogether. Let our Regulatory experts navigate this process with you and your team to ensure you have a foolproof beverage grazing the shelves!
